Wes Morgan is facing a battle to be fit for Leicester’s Champions League quarter-final against Atletico Madrid with the club captain expected to miss the trip to Everton on Sunday, Sportsmail understands.
Craig Shakespeare is reluctant to risk playing Morgan before the back injury which has kept him out of the last three Premier League wins has fully cleared.
Leicester are assessing Morgan’s nerve problem every 24 hours and he is improving but the club are unable to put a date on his return.
Morgan was walking around the King Power Stadium after the 2-0 victory over Sunderland, giving a tour to a young fan, but has not trained fully with his teammates since suffering the injury during the win over Sevilla on March 14.
